1 Corinthians 11:26 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 And you should imitate me, just as I imitate Christ.
2 I am so glad that you always keep me in your thoughts, and that you are following the teachings I passed on to you.
3 But there is one thing I want you to know: The head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
4 A man dishonors his head if he covers his head while praying or prophesying.
5 But a woman dishonors her head if she prays or prophesies without a covering on her head, for this is the same as shaving her head.
6 Yes, if she refuses to wear a head covering, she should cut off all her hair! But since it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut or her head shaved, she should wear a covering.
7 A man should not wear anything on his head when worshiping, for man is made in God's image and reflects God's glory. And woman reflects man's glory.
8 For the first man didn't come from woman, but the first woman came from man.
9 And man was not made for woman, but woman was made for man.
10 For this reason, and because the angels are watching, a woman should wear a covering on her head to show she is under authority.
11 But among the Lord's people, women are not independent of men, and men are not independent of women.
12 For although the first woman came from man, every other man was born from a woman, and everything comes from God.
13 Judge for yourselves. Is it right for a woman to pray to God in public without covering her head?
14 Isn't it obvious that it's disgraceful for a man to have long hair?
15 And isn't long hair a woman's pride and joy? For it has been given to her as a covering.
16 But if anyone wants to argue about this, I simply say that we have no other custom than this, and neither do God's other churches.
17 But in the following instructions, I cannot praise you. For it sounds as if more harm than good is done when you meet together.
18 First, I hear that there are divisions among you when you meet as a church, and to some extent I believe it.
19 But, of course, there must be divisions among you so that you who have God's approval will be recognized!
20 When you meet together, you are not really interested in the Lord's Supper.
21 For some of you hurry to eat your own meal without sharing with others. As a result, some go hungry while others get drunk.
22 What? Don't you have your own homes for eating and drinking? Or do you really want to disgrace God's church and shame the poor? What am I supposed to say? Do you want me to praise you? Well, I certainly will not praise you for this!
23 For I pass on to you what I received from the Lord himself. On the night when he was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took some bread
24 and gave thanks to God for it. Then he broke it in pieces and said, "This is my body, which is given for you. Do this to remember me."
25 In the same way, he took the cup of wine after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant between God and his people-- an agreement confirmed with my blood. Do this to remember me as often as you drink it."
26 For every time you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are announcing the Lord's death until he comes again.
27 So anyone who eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord unworthily is guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.
28 That is why you should examine yourself before eating the bread and drinking the cup.
29 For if you eat the bread or drink the cup without honoring the body of Christ, you are eating and drinking God's judgment upon yourself.
30 That is why many of you are weak and sick and some have even died.
31 But if we would examine ourselves, we would not be judged by God in this way.
32 Yet when we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned along with the world.
33 So, my dear brothers and sisters, when you gather for the Lord's Supper, wait for each other.
34 If you are really hungry, eat at home so you won't bring judgment upon yourselves when you meet together. I'll give you instructions about the other matters after I arrive.
1 Be G1096 ye followers G3402 of me, G3450 even as G2531 I also G2504 am of Christ. G5547
2 Now G1161 I praise G1867 you, G5209 brethren, G80 that G3754 ye remember G3415 me G3450 in all things, G3956 and G2532 keep G2722 the G3588 ordinances, G3862 as G2531 I delivered G3860 them to you. G5213
3 But G1161 I would G2309 have you G5209 know, G1492 that G3754 the G3588 head G2776 of every G3956 man G435 is G2076 Christ; G5547 and G1161 the head G2776 of the woman G1135 is the G3588 man; G435 and G1161 the head G2776 of Christ G5547 is God. G2316
4 Every G3956 man G435 praying G4336 or G2228 prophesying, G4395 having G2192 his head covered G2596 G2776 , dishonoreth G2617 his G848 head. G2776
5 But G1161 every G3956 woman G1135 that prayeth G4336 or G2228 prophesieth G4395 with her head G2776 uncovered G177 dishonoreth G2617 her G1438 head: G2776 for G1063 that is G2076 even all one G1520 G2532 G848 as if she were shaven. G3587
6 For G1063 if G1487 the G3588 woman G1135 be not G3756 covered, G2619 let her also G2532 be shorn: G2751 but G1161 if G1487 it be a shame G149 for a woman G1135 to be shorn G2751 or G2228 shaven, G3587 let her be covered. G2619
7 For G1063 a man G435 indeed G3303 ought G3784 not G3756 to cover G2619 his head, G2776 forasmuch as he is G5225 the image G1504 and G2532 glory G1391 of God: G2316 but G1161 the woman G1135 is G2076 the glory G1391 of the man. G435
8 For G1063 the man G435 is G2076 not G3756 of G1537 the woman; G1135 but G235 the woman G1135 of G1537 the man. G435
9 G1063 Neither G2532 G3756 was the man G435 created G2936 for G1223 the G3588 woman; G1135 but G235 the woman G1135 for G1223 the G3588 man. G435
10 For this cause G1223 G5124 ought G3784 the G3588 woman G1135 to have G2192 power G1849 on G1909 her head G2776 because G1223 of the G3588 angels. G32
11 Nevertheless G4133 neither G3777 is the man G435 without G5565 the woman, G1135 neither G3777 the woman G1135 without G5565 the man, G435 in G1722 the Lord. G2962
12 For G1063 as G5618 the G3588 woman G1135 is of G1537 the G3588 man, G435 even so G3779 is the G3588 man G435 also G2532 by G1223 the G3588 woman; G1135 but G1161 all things G3956 of G1537 God. G2316
13 Judge G2919 in G1722 yourselves G5213 G846 : is G2076 it comely G4241 that a woman G1135 pray G4336 unto God G2316 uncovered G177 ?
14 Doth G2228 not even G3761 nature G5449 itself G846 teach G1321 you, G5209 that, G3754 if G1437 a man G435 have long hair, G2863 it is G2076 a shame G819 unto him G846 ?
15 But G1161 if G1437 a woman G1135 have long hair, G2863 it is G2076 a glory G1391 to her: G846 for G3754 her hair G2864 is given G1325 her G846 for G473 a covering. G4018
16 But G1161 if G1487 any man G5100 seem G1380 to be G1511 contentious, G5380 we G2249 have G2192 no G3756 such G5108 custom, G4914 neither G3761 the G3588 churches G1577 of God. G2316
17 Now G1161 in this G5124 that I declare G3853 unto you I praise G1867 you not, G3756 that G3754 ye come together G4905 not G3756 for G1519 the G3588 better, G2909 but G235 for G1519 the G3588 worse. G2276
18 For G1063 first of all, G4412 when G3303 ye G5216 come together G4905 in G1722 the G3588 church, G1577 I hear G191 that there be G5225 divisions G4978 among G1722 you; G5213 and G2532 I partly G3313 G5100 believe G4100 it.
19 For G1063 there must G1163 be G1511 also G2532 heresies G139 among G1722 you, G5213 that G2443 they which are approved G1384 may be made G1096 manifest G5318 among G1722 you. G5213
20 When ye G5216 come together G4905 therefore G3767 into G1909 one place, G846 this is G2076 not G3756 to eat G5315 the Lord's G2960 supper. G1173
21 For G1063 in G1722 eating G5315 every one G1538 taketh before G4301 other his own G2398 supper: G1173 and G2532 one G3739 G3303 is hungry, G3983 and G1161 another G3739 is drunken. G3184
22 What G1063 G3361 ? have G2192 ye not G3756 houses G3614 to eat G2068 and G2532 to drink G4095 in? or G2228 despise G2706 ye the G3588 church G1577 of God, G2316 and G2532 shame G2617 them that have G2192 not G3361 ? What G5101 shall I say G2036 to you G5213 ? shall I praise G1867 you G5209 in G1722 this G5129 ? I praise G1867 you not. G3756
23 For G1063 I G1473 have received G3880 of G575 the G3588 Lord G2962 that which G3739 also G2532 I delivered G3860 unto you, G5213 That G3754 the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 the G3588 same night G3571 in which G3739 he was betrayed G3860 took G2983 bread: G740
24 And G2532 when he had given thanks, G2168 he broke G2806 it, and G2532 said, Take G2036 G2983 , eat: G5315 this G5124 is G2076 my G3450 body, G4983 which is broken G2806 for G5228 you: G5216 this G5124 do G4160 in G1519 remembrance G364 of me. G1699
25 After G3326 the same manner G5615 also G2532 he took the G3588 cup, G4221 when he had supped, G1172 saying, G3004 This G5124 cup G4221 is G2076 the G3588 new G2537 testament G1242 in G1722 my G1699 blood: G129 this G5124 do G4160 ye, as oft as G3740 ye drink G4095 G302 it, in G1519 remembrance G364 of me. G1699
26 For G1063 as often as G3740 ye eat G2068 G302 this G5126 bread, G740 and G2532 drink G4095 G302 this G5124 cup, G4221 ye do show G2605 the G3588 Lord's G2962 death G2288 till G891 G3757 he come. G2064
27 Wherefore G5620 whosoever G3739 G302 shall eat G2068 this G5126 bread, G740 and G2228 drink G4095 this cup G4221 of the G3588 Lord, G2962 unworthily, G371 shall be G2071 guilty G1777 of the G3588 body G4983 and G2532 blood G129 of the G3588 Lord. G2962
28 But G1161 let a man G444 examine G1381 himself, G1438 and G2532 so G3779 let him eat G2068 of G1537 that bread, G740 and G2532 drink G4095 of G1537 that cup. G4221
29 For G1063 he that eateth G2068 and G2532 drinketh G4095 unworthily, G371 eateth G2068 and G2532 drinketh G4095 damnation G2917 to himself, G1438 not G3361 discerning G1252 the G3588 Lord's G2962 body. G4983
30 For this cause G1223 G5124 many G4183 are weak G772 and G2532 sickly G732 among G1722 you, G5213 and G2532 many G2425 sleep. G2837
31 For G1063 if G1487 we would judge G1252 ourselves, G1438 we should not G3756 be judged. G2919
32 But G1161 when we are judged, G2919 we are chastened G3811 of G5259 the Lord, G2962 that G2443 we should not G3361 be condemned G2632 with G4862 the G3588 world. G2889
33 Wherefore G5620 , my G3450 brethren, G80 when ye come together G4905 to eat, G5315 tarry G1551 one for another. G240
34 And G1161 if G1487 any man G5100 hunger, G3983 let him eat G2068 at G1722 home; G3624 that G2443 ye come not together G4905 G3361 unto G1519 condemnation. G2917 And G1161 the G3588 rest G3062 will I set in order G1299 when G5613 G302 I come. G2064
